I Love Myself.

Post Reply New Topic

Tell us why you love yourself.

I'll start:

I love myself because I have a lot to offer to others.

Now you go. Ready... set... GO!

I am ok, I don't mind me.

I can be who I really am now.

I don't have to 'conform' to impossible
things, I disapoint society but who cares
about them?

I love myself because I treat my animals well.

I love myself... nightly Oh, wait! Wrong idea. Sorry.

I love myself because I know I genuinely want to help people. I want to lift their spirits and I enjoy making them laugh. I may not be as good at it as someone with social instincts, but the spirit is there. On an interesting side note, I have found that I have been fortunate enough to really make a difference for others like me with AS. My advice seems to be accepted "the right way" and my meaning isn't usually misunderstood. Perhaps because we tend to think alike in many ways and they almost universally "get" me. I have found this to be extremely rewarding and it is the driving force behind why I remain a visitor to this site when many drift away.

"Is this selfish?" I wonder sometimes. Is this selfish in that I am in essence receiving a form of "pay value" and self-validation when I can help someone else and truly be effective? I hope not, but cannot completely discount the possibility. I suppose that is the nature of one who questions their nature.

i luv myself cuz...im kind...and beautiful...and special....and im gonna change the world

I love myself because I treat others well, and I'm honest with myself.

I love myself, because I have a perfect role model-twin that I can look up to. That person is a real person, instead of a fictional character.

I love myself because I have a caring nature and I'm good at listening to people. And I give good hugs apparently.

I love myself because I am so pretty. And nothing else.

I love myself because in spite of all my weakness and failure I've managed to get to where I am somehow. Got my summer job. Got good college grades. Got a fair deal of musical skill and I think significant potential. I have a couple new friends. I've got a stronger grip on my paranoia.

This is a really good thread. I couldn't think of anything at first, but now I've been forced to acknowledge that maybe I haven't done so bad.

I love myself, because I don't talk Valley Talk, like the typical females, in my life.

I love myself because I've made it through a lot, and I think I can now handle anything.

Come on people - let's keep hearing them! Especially if you're low on self-esteem, you should think of something to post!

i love myself because despite all of my fears and doubts i don't roll over and give up. it's not my style to not at least try something.

I love myself because I'm a kind, caring and honest person. I look at people in this world and I'm glad I'm not like them because I have some traits that are uniquely me, like putting myself in other peoples shoes, not being a flamer or troll, and caring about each and every person in this world. I don't discriminate on race, sexual orientation or disability. In fact, I'll always stand up for those people.
